It was before five pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and I were resting there going over the footy results, prepared for the sixth call that day to come in. Finally we got the call from a girl on a company trip who had pulled into the BP filling station in Bowes Park and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Honda rental by mistake. The poor lady was somewhat distressed it seemed, saying "I cannot believe that I have messed up the car! I'm so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I totally forgot that I was using a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that things like this sadly do happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle to a protected area and, because it was just a short distance off from us, we could find the lady fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got extremely wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive home calm and less worried. Another misfuel correction in Haringey well done in my mind!

Do you or your employees usually misfuel your car? We can fix any associated problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Haringey we have seen an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a degree a result of people not being totally sure the right way to use it (be aware: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to one another on the car.

Now, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And certainly take care not to start the motor - not even to move it from the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you may very likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a significant situation to address in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the petrol or diesel will often contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both cases fairly quickly.

Be aware that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored near to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank at the back of the garden with old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of private and business premises in Haringey to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some containers in a garage, provided that we can reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Bowes Park (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a full Haringey Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill your car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and fill your automobile. They are also able to handle the most common issues that can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Bowes Park - Bowes Park Fuel Removal

A guy had broken down near a road in Bowes Park. His Ford car had ceased working and he'd no idea what was awry right up until he realised he had put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He called us to request a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I cannot believe that I did not comprehend that I put the wrong fuel in my car." He said that he had got absolutely no rest the day before and that could have been the key reason why.
